On Uniform Laws of Large Numbers for Ergodic Diffusions and Consistency of Estimators

Consider a regular diffusion process X with finite speed measure m. Denote the normalized speed measure by μ. We prove that the uniform law of large numbers holds if the class has an envelope function that is μ-integrable, or if is bounded in L _p(μ) for some p>1. In contrast with uniform laws of large numbers for i.i.d. random variables, we do not need conditions on the ‘size’ of the class in terms of bracketing or covering numbers. The result is a consequence of a number of asymptotic properties of diffusion local time that we derive. We apply our abstract results to improve consistency results for the local time estimator (LTE) and to prove consistency for a class of simple M-estimators. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.

On the Lipschitz classification of normed spaces, unit balls, and spheres

For every normed space , we note its closed unit ball and unit sphere by and , respectively. Let and be normed spaces such that is Lipschitz homeomorphic to , and is Lipschitz homeomorphic to .

We prove that the following are equivalent:

1. is Lipschitz homeomorphic to .

2. is Lipschitz homeomorphic to .

3. is Lipschitz homeomorphic to .

This result holds also in the uniform category, except (2 or 3) 1 which is known to be false.

Exchangeable Random Orders and Almost Uniform Distributions

Random orders on invariant under permutations are called exchangeable. The compact and convex set of all random total orders is shown to be a Bauer simplex whose set of extreme points, the socalled totally ordered paintbox processes, is homeomorphically parametrized by almost uniform distributions on the unit interval, i.e. by probability measures w on [0, 1] whose distribution functions are w-almost surely the identity.     

Strong Nearness Frames Having Enough Cauchy Filters

We prove results establishing sufficient conditions for the sum of two nearness frames to have enough Cauchy filters. From these results and the fact that, in the category of strong nearness frames having enough Cauchy filters and uniform frame maps, complete spatial frames form a coreflective subcategory, follow a variety of results where the open-sets contravariant functor from topological spaces to frames transforms products into sums and inverse limits into direct limits.     

Completion of Semiuniform Convergence Spaces

Semiuniform convergence spaces form a common generalization of filter spaces (including symmetric convergence spaces [and thus symmetric topological spaces] as well as Cauchy spaces) and uniform limit spaces (including uniform spaces) with many convenient properties such as cartesian closedness, hereditariness and the fact that products of quotients are quotients. Here, for each semiuniform convergence space a completion is constructed, called the simple completion. This one generalizes Császár's -completion of filter spaces. Thus, filter spaces are characterized as subspaces of convergence spaces. Furthermore, Wyler's completion of separated uniform limit spaces can be easily derived from the simple completion.     

Population and coherence transfer induced by double frequency sweeps in half-integer quadrupolar spin systems

We have recently shown that the sensitivity of single- and multiple-quantum NMR experiments of half-integer (N/2) quadrupolar nuclei can be increased significantly by introducing so-called double frequency sweeps (DFS) in various pulse schemes. These sweeps consist of two sidebands generated by an amplitude modulation of the RF carrier. Using a time-dependent amplitude modulation the sidebands can be swept through a certain frequency range. Inspired by the work of Vega and Naor (J. Chem. Phys. 75, 75 (1981)), this is used to manipulate +/-(m - 1) <--> +/-m (3/2 < or = m < or = N/2) satellite transitions in half-integer spin systems simultaneously. For (23)Na (I = 3/2) and (27)Al (I = 5/2) spins in single crystals it proved possible to transfer the populations of the outer +/-m spin levels to the inner +/-1/2 spin levels. A detailed analysis shows that the efficiency of this process is a function of the adiabaticity with which the various spin transitions are passed during the sweep. In powders these sweep parameters have to be optimized to satisfy the appropriate conditions for a maximum of spins in the powder distribution. The effects of sweep rate, sweep range, and RF field strength are investigated both numerically and experimentally. Using a DFS as a preparation period leads to significantly enhanced central transition powder spectra under both static and MAS conditions, compared to single pulse excitation. DFSs prove to be very efficient tools not only for population transfer, but also for coherence transfer. This can be exploited for the multiple- to single-quantum transfer in MQMAS experiments. It is demonstrated, theoretically and experimentally, that DFSs are capable of transferring both quintuple-quantum and triple-quantum coherence into single-quantum coherence in I = 5/2 spin systems. This leads to a significant enhancement in signal-to-noise ratio and strongly reduces the RF power requirement compared to pulsed MQMAS experiments, thus extending their applicability. This is demonstrated by (27)Al 3QMAS experiments on 9Al(2)O(3). 2B(2)O(3) and the mineral andalusite. In the latter compound, Al experiences a quadrupolar-coupling constant of 15.3 MHz in one of the sites. Finally a 5QMAS spectrum on 9Al(2)O(3). 2B(2)O(3) demonstrates the sensitivity enhancement of this experiment using a double frequency sweep.

Two-period model for calculation of level populations in subbands of multi-period quantum-cascade superlattice structures

For two periods of quantum-cascade laser structures, we propose a system of closed balance equations that make it possible to calculate the occupancy of the energy levels, the quasi-Fermi levels, and also the injection current density taking into account different charge carrier scattering mechanisms. __________ Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Spektroskopii, Vol. 74, No. 6, pp. 801–804, November–December, 2007.
